A Comfortable Room
[Perfect]
A plethora of gaily coloured silk pillows with fringes and tassels
completely conceal the floor. A large pillow in the corner stands out, a
brooding black mass of velvet and fringeless. Screens of nature scenes
painted with the spare strokes of a brush that hint at and outline the
subjects, leaving much to the imagination. Behind the screens, silk
curtains and sheets painted with bright patterns hide the walls, pulled
back only around the windows that pierce the southern and western walls to
look out over a lush garden filled with an untamed riot of plants and
trees.

Kinaed muses, "Okay, let's get this party started, shall we?"


Kinaed claims, "Is there anyone willing to volunteer to be our Scribe today? This entails some QP to post a log of the OOC Chat up on the forums for those who could not attend."


Penn states, "I can do that again."


Kinaed claims to Penn, "Thank you."

Kinaed has awarded you 2 QPs: Scribe


Kinaed muses, "Today's Agenda is:

- Staff Updates
- Player Heartbeat
- Player Topics

Is there anything anyone would like to add to the agenda to make certain we discuss it today?"


Toroni says, "Yes"

Kinaed states to Toroni, "Got you."


Kinaed muses, "Anyone else?"


Toroni says OOCly, "If I'm a little afkish, we're going to be podcasting in a bit, so"


Kinaed states, "Okay, since the crickets are chirping, let's kick off with Staff Updates."

Kinaed nods at Toroni.

Azarial starts editing a note. (This is an OOC action)

Azarial finishes her note.


Kinaed says, "Last week, I was barely here. I worked 51.5 hours, had yoga instructor training from 9am to 6pm on Saturday, and decided to take my kids out to the movies in my spare time."


Kinaed states, "The most I did on TI was log in and ask other staff to do things for me, which they very kindly did - so thanks, guys."


Kinaed states, "Oh, I think asked Az to reformat the 'affects' and 'status' menus to combine them."


Kinaed claims, "So if you type either 'affect' or 'status', it should be prettier."


Temi claims, "People were bringing that up with happy delights."

Temi nods at Kinaed.


Kinaed claims, "On my plate (in your future sometime) roles spec (still just looking for a nice interface) and automated jail."

Kinaed claims to Temi, "Oh, that's so good to hear."



Kinaed pontificates, "And that's me. Azarial, you're up!"


Azarial says, "Mostly chewed on the disease spec for when the health metric is low, plus a few bugs"

Kinaed nods at Azarial.

Kinaed asks of Azarial, "How far along are we in terms of being able to turn on our "seneschal" and city metric voting this week?"


Azarial says, "The voting is in and waiting."


Kinaed says, "That's awesome."


Toroni says OOCly, "How is that going to work?"


Azarial says, "The seneschal flagging is for the rest of the cit metric stuff, of which, iirc, the diseases and random magic are waiting."


Azarial states, "I need to eyeball the smack talking threads to see if I can get those progs written."


Kinaed says, "Okay, guys - this is how it will work. Caitrin is going to get coronated today, and we'll write an IC Event post."

Kinaed nods at Azarial.


Temi says, "I have a full explanatory speech written for her on the IC 'why' stuff, as a part of the coronation."


Kinaed states, "On the smack tlak threads - thank you those who have contributed. I haven't read them yet, but I intend to do so soon and award the players who assisted."

Kinaed nods at Temi.

Kinaed has transferred Aryhn. [OOC]


Kinaed states, "Once the speech is written and ICly released, we will turn on the Seneschal "voting" code. It's not a vote per se, it uses support to measure the influence a character has gathered. If you want
to be Seneschal, you need to NOMINATE yourself."

Kinaed asks of Azarial, "The command is still bid, right? "Bid nominate <name>"?"


Azarial says, "Yup."


Margaux questions, "What are the eligibility requirements for the role?"


Kinaed says, "Once the bids go into affect, game-wide players can see who is running to become sensechal."


Kylar states, "Everyone but barbarians, I believe."


Azarial claims, "16+, not a abrbarian"


Kinaed questions, "GLs can run?"


Azarial claims, "They will be de-gled if they win"


Kinaed states, "I'm fine if they can, just confirming because I don't remember the decision"

Kinaed nods at Azarial.


Azarial says, "Shucked like peas."


Margaux queries, "Will it impact things like dualguilding? I'm guessing it is part of guild code?"


Toroni questions, "So, if gl runs, they leave guild?"


Kinaed claims, "I think they have to win, Toroni."


Kinaed claims, "Pretty sure anyone can run."


Toroni claims, "If they win rather"


Temi queries, "And GL position, not guild, I think?"


Azarial says, "You lose all porior guilding when votd into office"


Temi says, "Ah."

Temi nods.


Hunapo queries, "So you become a guild of one, kinda?"


Kinaed states, "I -think- you can dual guild, but people who ARE dual guilded can't."


Azarial says, "Dual guilding gls is still not recommended."


Kinaed says, "Ahh. I think we need to hash that out a bit better."


Temi claims, "Anyway, this will be the first time on this, so we thank you all for your patience with any bumps the first go round."

Temi grins.


Kinaed claims, "Regardless, staff will return the Seneschal to their guild after their time in office is over."

Kinaed nods at Temi.


Toroni questions, "So, best for gls not to run?"



Temi claims, "Unless they want to be replaced as GL."

Temi nods.


Kinaed says, "It's fine if they do, provided they don't mind stepping down if they win - but yes, I'd recommend GLs not running as that's a role it'd be hard to return you to if someone else takes it in your
absence."

Kinaed nods at Temi.

Toroni nods.


Kinaed says, "Being the Seneschal will come with a few spiffy benefits, such as access to the city metric voting status, a sweet weekly income and an office in the Town Hall."


Toroni muses, "What's their job?"


Temi states, "Helping coordinate within city issues."
Lashianaa is idle.


Kinaed claims, "A Seneschal's term of office is 2 IC years (6 OOC months), barring if they go inactive, in which case it'll be shorter. Their job is to ensure that the City Metrics go the best way for the city."

Kinaed nods at Temi.

Cellia is idle.
Galen is idle.


Snefru muses, "Can they be forced out of office before then?"

Kinaed muses to Azarial, "They're subject to ousting, aren't they?"


Temi says, "Well, if nothing else, being deaded usually does a good job of that."


Azarial says, "Yup"

Kinaed grins at Temi.

Kinaed nods.

Lashianaa is no longer idle.


Azarial claims, "Normal gl otherwise, and we just start a new round of bids"

Lashianaa has returned from AFK.

Kinaed nods at Azarial.

Snefru nods.


Kinaed says, "So yes, a Seneschal can be ousted."

Kinaed queries, "Any further questions? Staff, is there anything about this process I've forgotten to tell everyone? "


Temi states, "I think that's the highlights."

Alesdair is idle.


Kinaed says, "Okay, if you're a Seneschal wanna be, the way to get elected is to curry favor (ie, get more supporters than anyone else)"


Toroni says OOCly, "So, question is intire court setup being changed now with the queen being put in place?"

Evrald questions, "Can a Charali ever become a Seneschal? Or are we too horrible?"

Gothan is idle.

Gothan is no longer idle.
Gothan has returned from AFK.

Kylar says to Evrald, "No savages"


Kinaed claims, "Az said - 16+ and not a savage, so alas, no savages."

Kinaed nods at Evrald.

Kinaed nods at Kylar.

Evrald exclaims to Kylar, "Savage haters!"

Kylar claims to Evrald, "Don't look at me, Az made the rule :P"

Kyra is idle.


Temi claims, "Court will be more a social arrangement for the nobility - and of course they are encouraged in the meddling in the city stuff."


Kinaed claims, "I made the rule."

Kyra is no longer idle.
Kyra has returned from AFK.

Kinaed has transferred Ellette. [OOC]

Cellia is no longer idle.
Cellia has returned from AFK.


Temi states, "I think Margaux has some plans on their positioning with it no longer being ruling the kingdom."

Kinaed smiles.


Cellia queries, "Where does the title rank?"


Kinaed says, "I'm sure Margaux will have further announcements and stuff ICly."

Kinaed states to Cellia, "Good question, I'll review help precedence also, but I think it'll rank amongst the lower tiers of nobility."


Margaux nods. "I'm drawing the focus back for NewCourt. Announcements will go out to court members post coronation.


Cellia nods her head to Kinaed.


Kinaed claims, "I think Second Tier, 2 or 3 as per HELP PRECEDENCE. I'll talk it through with staff and update that today."


Galen is no longer idle.
Galen has returned from AFK.


Cellia queries, "Sorry, when are bids due by?"

Kinaed asks of Azarial, "1 week or 2 weeks of RP?"


Azarial states, "One ooc week for nominations, two for the campaign for vots, 180 days in power"

Kinaed exclaims to Cellia, "Great question, it's been so long since we had one, I can't remember!"


Azarial states, "Baring death or dismembership."


Azarial says, "Starting form when the bids are opened"


Cellia muses, "Are votes one per person, or does the relative rank of the person supporting you matter?"


Azarial claims, "One per, right off hand"


Kinaed states, "It's not a vote - it's support, and therefore yes, their rank and positioning and backing matter."


Margaux pontificates, "Let the hunger games begin! (totes not NewCourt's motto)"


Kinaed trails off, "Okay, let me just have a quick look at our recent updates, because we're probably going to spill over timewise if I don't..."

Temi states to Margaux, "Well, you would look good in a capital hair-do."

Kylar grins at Margaux.


Kinaed states, "Okay, I don't see anything further. Temi, you're up. :)"


Margaux trails off, "I would rock that. I we get a bunch of peasants, lease out the Vandagan stadium..."


Temi states, "Okay! So, there's this little coronation event I've been working on."


Kinaed snickers.

Kylar laughs.

Kinaed nods at Temi.


Asala states, "I support this."


Kylar says, "Never heard of it."

Asala grins.


Temi claims, "Event today, about an hour after OOC chat to give everybody time to change and gather"

Kylar grins.


Gothan pontificates, "I don't have any clothes! Oh no!"


Temi claims, "This one will be public access, subject to the regular palace search and seizure, and will be ceremony, followed by open court, followed by ball."


Toroni needs to scrounge together an outfit


Kylar questions, "Haa... maybe make it an hour and a half after?"


Temi says, "Tomorrow I will be holding another, private event for court members and nobles, as a more intimate little thing"

Margaux states to Toroni, "Time to arrest a suspicious-looking partygoer and steal his clothes."


Temi says, "Nothing important, just mingling."


Kylar declaims, "Lucky nobs!"


Temi claims, "And over this past week we've had the party tents"


Temi declares, "Hopefully you guys have been enjoying those!"


Evrald states, "I need time to... find some soap."


Evrald states, "Must look my best for the event."

Temi asks, "Do you want me to leave them open for a couple days after the coronation, or is everybody good on that RP now?"


Temi says, "Okay, I'll close those up late tonight or sometime tomorrow then, since it doesn't sound like too much urgency"


Penn muses, "Can someone explain the search and seizure?"



Toroni says OOCly, "Sort of here, podcasting at the moment"

Kinaed nods at Penn.


Temi says, "When you go into the palace, there's an xblock that stops you and you have to 'accept palace search and seizure'"


Kinaed says, "Not everyone gets it, but most people will if they're not a member of Court."


Kinaed states, "Basically, IC guards pat you down and take your stuff."


Temi states, "It basically just confirms that you recognize you don't have any weapons or other suspicious things available on your person, unless you have done RPA with the staff to smuggle them in"


Kinaed claims, "To enter the palace court, you need to agree that has happened ICly."

Kinaed nods at Temi.


Temi says, "You can keep them OOCly so we don't have to deal with it, just not ICly available"


Kinaed claims, "So if you want to have a dagger, contact Temi."

Alesdair is no longer idle.
Alesdair has returned from AFK.


Penn muses, "I see. So nothing coded, just assume from that point you're not carrying anything shanky?"


Kinaed nods at Penn.


Kinaed claims, "It only applies to those people who get the message."


Margaux claims, "A guilded court member could also bring you in via grouping."


Kinaed says, "Which is based on guild, social class, etc."

Kinaed nods at Margaux.


Galen is here now.

Kinaed smiles at Galen.


Ellette has lost link.
Ellette has reconnected.


Toroni says OOCly, "Even gls?"

Kinaed states to Toroni, "Yes."


Galen is at work, had a long and involved call

Zabris gives a crown-shaped cake adorned with sixteen gold-frosted peaks to Ellette.


Kinaed claims, "If you get the message, it applies to you."


Kinaed says, "You can only get around it with RPA."


Ellette wonders, "Will search and seizure take away weapons?"

Kinaed says to Ellette, "Yes."


Alesdair questions, "So only court members? No one else is allowed?"


Temi states, "Only ICly. OOCly you'll still have them."


Ellette asks "Okay got it. So we unequip and don't reference them?"

Temi nods at Ellette.

Kinaed states to Alesdair, "Everyone can enter court, just most of the public will be searched by guards and have weapons/suspicious items seized off their person."

Kinaed nods at Ellette.


Galen trails off, "I won't be able to attend today's event unless it's still going on four hours from now..."

Kinaed comforts Galen.


Temi states, "The ball probably will be."

Kinaed states to Galen, "I suspect it will."

Margaux pontificates to Galen, "Come for the dancing!"


Kinaed states, "Okay, that's Temi."


Temi claims, "I hope the open court isn't... but I wouldn't be too surprised."

Kinaed wonders to Xinoe, "Can you give us an update?"


Galen states, "I think I was invited to the event tomorrow though but I'm not entirely sure"

Xinoe declaims, "This week I helped fight back the rising tide of typos and requests. Art is still my top priority but I wanted to set it aside completely to cut the wait time on smaller projects while we've
been understaffed. As our new staff members settle in I'll get back to it, and may be looking for some help from players to spot any little errors within the art craft soon. And that's me for this week!"

Kinaed nods at Xinoe.


Toroni says OOCly, "So, can we put weapons away to avoid it?"


Galen states, "What I gather is that you can codedly carry the weapon but you can't have or use it IC."

Kinaed says to Toroni, "No, you can only avoid it with RPA."


Kylar states, "So excited for art."

Kinaed nods at Galen.


Ellette reckons she should leave her armour at home and do a mad dash to find some kind of formal clothing.

Kinaed states to Toroni, "Can you take further questions regarding the search and seizure to tells with Temi? It's 8:40am my time, so I need to move the chat along or we'll blow out a lot. Thanks :)"


Margaux states, "I'm happy to answer any questions on S&Seizure via tells if there are any queries."
Temi nods.

Toroni nods.

Kinaed claims to Remy, "You're up. Please provide an update of what you've been doing this week and plan to do next week."

Kinaed says to Margaux, "Thanks :)"


Remy declaims, "Just getting adjusted! Helping where I can, mostly with requests and posting tons of IC events in a (hopefully) timely manner. Temi is helping me get comfortable with getting plots processed, so
I'll hopefully be dealing with those without so many questions soon!"

Kinaed smiles.


Temi says, "By which he means 'Engh, you do it, I'm working on this speech, grumble grumble'"

Kinaed says to Remy, "Thanks. I hope you don't mind that I'm trying to power through staff updates quickly. :)"


Remy says, "A lot of curt nods and vague agreement to what I suggested."


Remy declares, "And that's all I've got!"
Ismael grins at Remy.

Kinaed says to Zabris, "Welcome, Zabris! You're up. Please introduce yourself and give us any updates from your side, particularly what you plan to work on soon."


Zabris says, "Hi! This week I ascended to the TI heavens - thanks for having me, all. Still getting settled in and figuring out the flow. Also I made a crown cake. Next week I will be tackling the Typo board and
starting to help with building stuff."

Margaux states to Remy and Zabris, "Excited to have you both onboard up in staff land. "


Ellette congratulates Zabris on ascension

Kyra is idle.

Kinaed claims, "I should note that I'm interviewing two more potential staff members today. By next OOC Chat, we expect to potentially have one more staff member."


Cellia says, "More staff is always good."


Kinaed states, "Okay, I think that's it for staff updates."


Ismael sadfaces at Kinaed.


Ismael declaims, "I didn't do my update!"


Ismael says, "Requests, mapping & recommendations. I haven't been about as much as before, but I'll be working on my time this next week, I'm hoping. That's all for me."


Kylar gasps. Kinaed! How could you!

Kylar grins.

Kinaed asks, "Next, Player Heartbeat. How has the game been this week, folks? Enjoying yourselves? RP good? Anything shitting you about the game that staff ought to know or look into?"


Galen declaims, "I'd like to ask about the request I made in private once the meeting's done, if that's ok!"


Kylar says, "Great rp. All's awesome."

Kyra is no longer idle.
Kyra has returned from AFK.


Galen trails off, "I know that staff has been super busy with a lot of stuff, and I don't want to pester, but I'd just like to maybe check in..."

Kinaed states to Galen, "Sounds good, sorry I haven't gotten back to you."



Galen says, "It's ok! I know it's been busy and there's lots going on and you're understaffed."

Kinaed smiles.


Kinaed says, "Less so no, thank heavens."


Kinaed states, "Now."


Galen declaims, "I'm glad for that!"


Kinaed asks, "Okay, anyone else want to tell us how their week went?"

Xinoe starts writing a note. (This is an OOC action)


Margaux says, "I've mostly been taking a breather this week ahead of what I expect to be a busy few weeks of TI stuff. The RP I've had has been very good though. :)"

Kinaed nods at Margaux.

Kinaed states to Margaux, "Glad to hear that."


Remy states, "Looked like there was a pretty big tent event last night. I didn't get a chance to check on the RP, but I'm sure it was good."


Hunapo states, "The RP has been good but slow for the most part."


Kinaed questions, "Anyone partake of the coronation tents and celebrations?"


Penn claims, "Only had a chance to play a day last week, but went really well! Thanks, those who visited the Crow's Nest to welcome Isla and Penn. :)"



Gothan says, "Pretty good! Gothan made it to Squire this week, so developing his character quite nicely."


Toroni says OOCly, "I did"


Asala claims, "Thanks to everyone who came to the little impromptu event I held last night. It was my first one, so hopefully it was alright."

Kinaed states to Gothan, "Sounds exciting."


Toroni says OOCly, "The terniment"

Kinaed nods at Hunapo.


Ellette says "I returned to my duties after nearly a week of hermitting from rp. Been enjoying some of the guild rp on an alt now too getting to experience southside has been great!

Kinaed smiles.

Kinaed nods at Ellette.


Toroni claims, "To kinaed had some fun with an alt, for a time, tor is slowly, not becoming as stressful"


Alesdair states, "A bit lacking, but hopefully it will pick up soon."


Cellia claims, "Have been enjoying RP quite a bit, sad I had to miss the arena fight."

Kinaed nods at Toroni.


Aryhn claims, "I've got 80+ hours spread in rp this week, I'm having fun it seems"


Kinaed says, "I'm so glad people are using the Colosseum I built."


Kinaed chuckles.


Toroni says OOCly, "It going to go away?"


Kinaed states, "Okay, glad to hear it. Let's move on quickly to Toroni's topic."


Kylar states, "Been having fun, forming new relationships, breaking things, misplacing things, being totally scatterbrained. It's been awesome. Haha."


Toroni says OOCly, "Right"

Kinaed muses to Toroni, "Is what going away? The colosseum?"

Toroni nods at Kinaed.


Temi says, "The colosseum is staying. There's also an arena party tent which will go."


Asala states, "It was the Farin event tent, which probably will :P"

Kinaed states to Toroni, "Did someone blow it up or something? Otherwise, I don't see why it would."


Margaux states, "We're selling it to the Daravi."

Kylar laughs.

Kinaed nods at Temi.


Toroni queries, "Wait.. am I confusing it with the tent?"

Temi nods at Toroni.


Kinaed questions, "Oh, the event happened in the tent, not the colosseum?"


Asala states, "That's where the tournament was, since it was for the Coronation."

Ellette has lost link.

Asala nods.


Temi states, "But the colosseum will continue to be there for more such events."


Kinaed ahhs, "Ahh well. Reminder then, folks: A colosseum exists in the Vandagan quarter, check it out sometime if you like gladiator fights."

Kinaed nods at Temi.


Margaux says, "Someone needs to run on a blood and circuses ticket for seneschal."


Asala says, "Hunger Games."


Kinaed wonders, "Okay, ten minutes to go and Toroni has a topic for us. Toroni, would you care to introduce us to your topic?"


Margaux states, "Bread... I mean bread."

Toroni nods.

Kinaed nods at Margaux.

Ellette has reconnected.

Kylar grins at Margaux.


Toroni says, "Ok so this is a quick one.. I have begun deguilding chars, that have not showed up.. if you have an alt in the order, please, please, please bring them around, or let me know you intend to keep
them. also. I am working to work with people in jail. but I'm running in to walls sometimes where I can't act on cases do to waiting on rpa this is a general reminder I will of course put cases first and jailed
pcs first, but sometimes, it takes time for rpa depending on what is done ic"

Xinoe finishes her note.

Kinaed says to Toroni, "Please touch base with me about any jail cases that are held up."

Toroni nods at Kinaed.


Toroni claims, "To kinaed part of it I think is communication, and we are working on it.. but"


Kinaed claims, "Okay, I guess that's all for everyone? We have 5 minutes, if people would like to socialize. Also, please vote for TI using the links in the upper left hand corner on our website: http://ti-legacy.com"

Kinaed nods at Toroni.



Temi claims, "Coronation at the palace in approximately an hour five."


Kinaed says, "Voting for TI raises our visibility. Also, if anyone has a Reddit account, we get a lot of positive exposure and new players from there, so if you want to write a Reddit review for us, then link me
to it, I'll give you QP."

Kinaed nods at Temi.


Cellia exclaims, "Almost fourty people on!"

Kinaed nods at Cellia.

Lashianaa smiles at Cellia.

Snefru nods.


Kinaed says, "This is going to be a big event, we hope - and I can't wait to see how the selection of our first Seneschal goes."


Asala declaims, "Pretty excited for all the changes!"


Kinaed trails off, "So are we. Also, on that note..."


Ellette frantically worries about her lack of formal wear besides pretty armour.


Toroni claims, "Ug.. need to find a merch, to find something deacent for inquisitor"


Remy says, "Hopefully with a healthy dash of political subterfuge"


Toroni agrees with Ellette


Kinaed states, "This is a big shift in gameplay for TI, folks. I hope it is a positive one. But there's a chance that it won't be, or may need some tweaking."


Galen dreads all the last minute rush orders.


Gothan will be wearing a potato sack


Ellette high fives Gothan "This is y u get paid da big buks goth!"


Gothan says, "Awwwwwwwwwww yeeeeeeeeee"


Evrald says, "Galen."

Hunapo states to Kinaed, "I am sure there will be tweaking, but I am excited for it none the less."


Kinaed says, "Please don't bury your discontent and walk away if this whole city metric and Seneschal experience doesn't pan out well, let us know. It may take some time to adjust the system until it feels
great."


Temi says, "Wear your best, but we won't be turning people away for looking like commoners. There'll be a big gathering section for any-old-looky-looks"


Evrald states, "There's only... like twenty people without outfits."

Kinaed nods at Hunapo.


Evrald claims, "Shouldn't be too bad."


Alesdair wonders, "Sorry if you guys already went over it, but what are the effects of the Council again? Does it replace Court?"


Asala coughs, "It makes the rest of our outfits look better, natch."


Ellette says "Tbh Im a knight... I can get away with ceremonial armour..." followed by a wink "Toroni just wear red and everyone'll bow anyway."


Kylar trails off, "Eehhh... garments..."


Temi says, "There's not really a council"


Kinaed says, "There is no City Council as a body per se. Basically, the GLs and all of the nobles can 'vote' weekly for a city metric."


Toroni states, "I think, tor had something in his room, but unsure if it was, ment for males, or not"


Kinaed says, "They loosely form a 'city council' though they don't have to meet or anything."


Gothan buys armor really quickly so he can fit in with Ellette and look pretty.


Cellia queries, "Is there any incentive for non-Tenebrae people to vote down metrics?"


Azarial states, "So that another metric goes up"


Alesdair says, "I see. Sounds interesting. I love the metric system, so it's cool that players will have more intervention in its use."


Xinoe declares, "Please excuse me, and have fun!"

Xinoe and her mythical entourage depart to the sound of laughter, pan pipes and double flutes. [OOC]


Temi states, "There's also items tied to certain metrics being low to restock and such"


Kinaed says, "When they vote, it will create a tally for which city metrics will be affected what way, with a small bit of randomness thrown in. The Senschal is basically responsible for watching the vote and
making sure things go 'the best way possible' or even 'their way' or the way of 'whomever is bribing him/her the most'"

Margaux states to Cellia, "It is a zero sum game. So there are say, 400 points in the metric system, and everyone will have their own special interests."

Gothan begins to count their money.


Toroni states, "Wait"


Kinaed claims, "If you type City Report, you can see the current status of the City Metrics. Depending on where they sit at the end of the week, in-game modifiers will happen, like if infrastructure is poor, it
will take you longer to walk place to place."


Alesdair says, "Although weekly sounds a bit too frequent."


Kinaed says, "If health is poor, people may start getting diseases/sick."


Temi says, "It's a concern, but we'll see how it feels in practice"

Temi nods at Alesdair.


Kinaed claims, "That sort of thing."


Cellia claims, "Agreed, but I think that the number of characters who have an interest in law being high will much outweigh those otherwise."

Kinaed nods.


Alesdair questions, "Why didn't monthly or fortnightly work?"


Kinaed says, "We felt it'd be easier to go from weekly to fortnightly than fortnightly to weekly."


Toroni muses, "To kinaed so, gls will vote on issues? I'm confused"


Cellia states, "And that did not make any sense, but hopefully the gist got across"


Kinaed claims, "Also, Az - note that we should only kick off the city metrics when we have a seneschal in place."


Margaux says, "Every guild receives more money based on their tied-metric being high."

Temi claims to Cellia, "Yup, but all those people also have other concerns too. Nobody in a vacuum."

Kinaed states to Toroni, "They're not voting on issues, they vote which City Metric they are focusing their attention on that week."

Asala has lost link.
Asala has reconnected.

Kinaed says to Toroni, "The Seneschal can see the votes and coordinate people to get an outcome. If they want to."


Cellia muses, "Ah, you can only vote on one metric a week?"

Kinaed nods at Cellia.


Toroni is just, a touch confused "this is new, right, or something I missed?"


Cellia queries, "How will anybody ever justify voting down the Order to the seneschal?"


Kylar claims, "Ha"


Temi says, "Yes, this is new with the introuction of sensechal."

Kinaed gets the City Council Spec.

Kylar gets the City Council Spec.
Kinaed gives the City Council Spec to Toroni.

Kinaed states to Toroni, "Have a read of that in your spare time."


Temi claims, "It's not voting down the Order, it's voting for economics, rather than faith."


Kinaed claims, "We're over time, and Temi needs to get prepared for the coronation event."


Cellia claims, "Ah, I see. Thanks :)"

Asala nods.

Kinaed smiles.


Azarial trails off, "The order is unshakeable--religion is maxed. local piety, on the other hand..."


Asala says, "We're all dirty sinners."


Ellette says "Good luck staff and players for coronation!! Should prove a fun and interesting event!!!


Penn declaims, "Exciting times! See you soon"



Kinaed pontificates, "Okay, everyone, thanks again for your time today. Enjoy your RP this week, and please pboard staff with any concerns that arise from the system. See you next week!"


Toroni says, "Thanks"


A Comfortable Room
[Perfect]
A plethora of gaily coloured silk pillows with fringes and tassels
completely conceal the floor. A large pillow in the corner stands out, a
brooding black mass of velvet and fringeless. Screens of nature scenes
painted with the spare strokes of a brush that hint at and outline the
subjects, leaving much to the imagination. Behind the screens, silk
curtains and sheets painted with bright patterns hide the walls, pulled
back only around the windows that pierce the southern and western walls to
look out over a lush garden filled with an untamed riot of plants and
trees.
